City market context

From the Calgary market article, 22 September 2026:

Calgary's August 2026 real estate data reveals a market where falling supply is outpacing falling demand, pushing the sales-to-new-listings ratio above 60 percent. Despite this apparent tightness, apartment prices have corrected 13 percent from their 2024 peak, signaling a segment-specific softening that complicates the overall outlook. Calgary's August 2026 market shows a divergent signal: while total residential sales fell 16% year-over-year to 1,660 units, the sales-to-new-listings ratio pushed above 60% due to a sharper 10% drop in new listings. This suggests a short-term absorption spike rather than a broad-based demand recovery, as apartment prices remain 13% below their 2024 peak.
